Those five packages: - are indeed native packages with Debian revisions - are not maintained in a VCS (or the VCS is not advertized using Vcs-*). So there's no easy way to understand how the package differs from upstream (no patch serie, no VCS history). I don't think that it's something desirable. (if the packages had declared a VCS, they would have joined cachefilesd, userv-utils, and vde2 in the "native package with a Debian revision maintained in a VCS" category.) Lucas
